I was wondering recently: how will we recognize people in eternity? Here’s the reason for my ponder – a picture flashed through my mind of when I first see the face of Jesus. I could see Him look me in the eye and lightly… Continue Reading “This Changes Everything…”

Hard – that’s all there is to it. Our world is in such turmoil. Here in America we’re (once again) tearing ourselves apart. The headlines revolve around a man who died – his family and friends despondent – and the lives of the policemen… Continue Reading “EVERY One…”

Do you find yourself saying ‘wow, it’s Friday again’ – or Monday or whatever day? Seems like time moves at warp speed. I can barely remember three days ago, so much happens. Maybe it’s because our world is ‘bigger’ now. Used to be we… Continue Reading “Ready, Set…”

Worship day is different lately. No more dressing nice to head out and be with those who believe in the One True God. I would love to have a video of my hubby and I singing along with the worship songs during the online… Continue Reading “Rise Up…”

I really just want a quick fix. Snap of the fingers back to normal. You know…how it was just a month or so ago. We Americans can now see just how dear freedom is. For this small taste of restraint, of lack, of uncertainty… Continue Reading “These Times…”

Don’t you love a good book? Fiction or non-fiction – written well, I can’t get enough. Especially the happy ending ones. The book of John ends this way: “Jesus did many other things as well. If every one of them were written down, I… Continue Reading “Happy Ending…”

Day to day life is a bit different lately. A lot more thought given to running a quick errand, and here in Florida, no more beach trips for the time being – or any fun places for that matter. But the living is a… Continue Reading “Living Now…”

Normal is no more. Years of normal definitely tell me this isn’t it. Sheltering in place – like during a storm, only the weather isn’t the issue. Covering faces and hands. Avoiding hugging, not getting close. Jobs gone in a matter of days. Unsettling… Continue Reading “Unsettling…”

It’s different – being older. When my favorite three year old comes over and we come up with ideas of what to do next we both go full speed saying: “Let’s do it!” I think at three there is only one speed – full… Continue Reading “This is the Life…”
